AI Article Synopsis
- As the number of diverse, resource-limited devices connected to the Internet increases, ensuring data privacy and security has become more difficult.
- Effective cryptography solutions and standardized secure communication methods are essential to address these challenges, with the PRISEC module of the UbiPri middleware aiming to tackle this issue.
- The study evaluates various encryption algorithms (AES, RC6, Twofish, SPECK128, LEA, and ChaCha20-Poly1305) in terms of execution time, throughput, and power consumption, finding that ChaCha20-Poly1305, SPECK128, and LEA are particularly suitable for resource-constrained IoT devices.
Article Abstract
With the growing number of heterogeneous resource-constrained devices connected to the Internet, it becomes increasingly challenging to secure the privacy and protection of data. Strong but efficient cryptography solutions must be employed to deal with this problem, along with methods to standardize secure communications between these devices. The PRISEC module of the UbiPri middleware has this goal. In this work, we present the performance of the AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), RC6 (Rivest Cipher 6), Twofish, SPECK128, LEA, and ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithms in Internet of Things (IoT) devices, measuring their execution times, throughput, and power consumption, with the main goal of determining which symmetric key ciphers are best to be applied in PRISEC. We verify that ChaCha20-Poly1305 is a very good option for resource constrained devices, along with the lightweight block ciphers SPECK128 and LEA.
